where is mmcomputing?
I have changed my name and signature on our new forums to Grey Ghost, I decided to make this change as I did not want to use the club as an advertising medium for my business, Double M Computing is my business name. (plug, plug) It is against the club rules to do so and as such it would be wrong for me to flout the rules while expecting others to adhere.
So for those of you that know me as MM or mmcomputing, I'm still the same nutter just labelled differently. I'll be signing myself in future as MGM which I think can be interpreted in many ways. A hearty welcome to your new Forum and enjoy your stay, loads to read see and do. The 75 and ZT community is here to support you, help is always at hand. Grey Ghost (ghost for short) AKA MGM |

MGM - did you know that The Grey Ghosts was the name given to the legendary Cunard liners RMS Queen Mary and RMS Queen Elizabeth? They were called this when they were used as troopships during World War II. They were painted battleship grey and were so fast that they were rarely seen by any other ship on the Atlantic - hence the 'ghost' bit. Unlike other troopships they would usually travel alone, well away from the normal convoy routes. The two liners were equivalent to twenty ordinary troopships and carried more than two million wartime passengers. Queen Mary (now at Long Beach, California) holds the all-time record for the greatest number of people ever carried on a single ship. In July 1943, she crossed the Atlantic with 16,683 ‘souls on board’. Amazing stuff. Last edited by Simon W; 5th November 2006 at 14:22.. |

I didn't know that, excellent choice in names then.
I have to admit it was after one of my childhood TV heroes, and the fact that I tend to name my cars. 1972 TR250, was the Green Goblin, Honda van was The Eggbox, Current is The Zed, but is slowly becoming the Grey Ghost, especially when it's dirty and disappears into the background> http://www.fiftiesweb.com/tv/gray-ghost.htm Even if it is spelled with an "a" Hearty welcome by the way and enjoy your stay.
